Coz he's not going to put us on AA and that's the whole reason we just called pre

I mean he's not gonna put us on AA when we flat regardless of how we act before doing so.

Sure but he's going to put us on some range of hands and if we can convince him that there wasn't any semblance of even considering 3betting for value it's going to help us a bunch postflop beyond just the fact that we flatted

I think to accomplish this, we should look him dead in the eyes, tell him "I have aces," then flat.

that works too, adds in the 'wtf' factor

risks a collusion penalty depending on the casino though.

Tell him "I have red aces".

Happy to 3 bet oop vs faraz here and am confident enough in my hand reading to play a pot post-flop and possibly a huge pot.

I'm 3 betting like... 66+, Ajs here and tiny 5 betting to induce 6 bet shove with 46s

joking... kinda

oh and I fold river cause of bet size tells... But, I don't mind call/berate

Since it is nuts or nothing, I would bet on nothing.

Totally agree. I don't know why he would bet a Q here given it's showdown value, or any mid-pair hand. Without knowing who villain is and just reading this thread, this looks like a boat, Kx, or air. And I think it's air often enough that this is a call (he only has to be bluffing like 1/3 of the time).
